Abstract

A ceramic substrate has a robust and irregular hard surface. The ceramic substrate is imaged, with the image layer occupying lower areas or valleys. Higher areas or peaks valleys protect the image from mechanical forces to which the ceramic article is subjected after installation. A glaze may be applied over the ceramic substrate, with the glaze providing peaks and valleys, with the image layer in the valleys. The glaze may impart hardness for protecting the image layer from mechanical forces.
